Sorry, but my answer hasn't changed since you asked the same question yesterday. No, the Ivies take very few transfers, and those they take must have near-perfect records. Yours doesn't qualify. All the great activities in the world don't substitute for a mediocre high school record. On the bright side, you would probably be miserable at an Ivy League School. There are lots of other places from which to launch a good life, and you would be better suited to one of those.
Reply:Probably not! Although it does depend a bit on what school you are now at.


Try one tier below the Ivies, like Tufts or Emory
